BERKLEY -- A 27-year-old Middleboro man died in a two-car crash early Friday morning on Route 24 in Berkley

State Police said Dylan J. Storch was driving a 2003 Saab sedan that overturned and burst into flames shortly after 1:30 a.m. north of exit 11. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The other vehicle was a 1999 Dodge Durango driven by Danne Picot, 23, of Lynn. Picot and two passengers were taken to Rhode Island Hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening.

A longtime Fall River resident, Storch graduated from Coyle-Cassidy High School in Taunton in 2005 and went to work at the family business in Fall River, Storch Radon Services. Storch was not not married nor did he leave behind any children. Family members and work colleagues were unavailable for comment Friday.
